Weekly Bro Nameth Awards and Braves Chatter

Its hump day and Betty White is coming to town. Grab a snickers and man up.

1. FIFA President: "Gay fans should refrain from sexual activities' in Qatar." That went over about as well as a pregnant pole vaulter. A friend of mine on Facebook said it best; How about everyone gay and straight skip the World Cup that year since they picked such a shitty and socially repressed country to have it in. Grab a Snicks.
2. Mother Nature: It's colder than a mother in laws love! She needs to get off her high horse and make a decision. Typical woman. Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Enough already! Either get really cold and snow or stop wasting my time. Cold with no snow is just a big tease. I'm sure next week it will be a high of 75 since we do live in Atlanta and that's how she rolls.
3. Jets Strength Coach: You sir are a grade A D-Bag. Former Dolphins LB Zach Thomas has come out and said that he believes the coaches were told to lineup on the sideline and I agree with him. Why would 5 coaches and a player be standing toe to toe directly on the white line where the coaches box is? It doesn't make any sense. He is suspended without pay for the rest of the year and honestly, he should probably be fired. I say they let him fight the guy he took down.
4. Tavaris Jackson: Carpe Diem. Everyone wants to see what Tavaris Jackson can bring to the table and after stinking it up he collides knees with AP and down goes Frazier. You have basically been sitting on the bench for 4 years and here was your chance to show what you could do and to say you fell on your face is an understatement. With Dong Gate likely retiring you could of shown the coaches and fans that you were ready for the prime time but no dice.

This weeks 5 hour Energy award goes to the NY Jets. I don't know what your deal is but you guys are walking around like you got that 2:30 feeling. You get absolutely drubbed by the Patriots 45-3 and then come home to play the Dolphins. You lose 10-6. Now that's 9 points scored in your last 2 games and Dirty Sanchez looks awful. Santonio Holmes couldn't catch a cold right now and Rex Ryan is just a fat slob. If their is 1 thing in sports that is my ultimate pet peeve its someone like Rex Ryan. He walks around like he has accomplished something yet he hasn't done anything as a head coach. He wears a wig at a press conference and thinks its funny. Jokes on you Sherman Klump.

This weeks Mike Tyson Award for biggest beat down goes to Colgate University. You lost 100-43 to Syracuse. Now, Colgate has no chance of beating Syracuse but to lose by 57 you got to be doing alot wrong. Syracuse led 12-0 before Colgate got its first bucket, 34-4 with a little over eight minutes remaining in the first half and 46-8 by halftime. At one point in the second half The Orange were up by 63! The first half for Colgate was almost as bad as the 5 point performance the Cal Golden Bears had a while back but it did set a record for first half futility in the Carrier Dome.

This weeks "it sucks to be you" award goes to the Carolina Panthers. Your once competitive franchise looks awful. Jimmy Clausen looks like the biggest knobber in the NFL and you got manhandled on Sunday against the Falcons. I don't care that you ran the ball well in the 2nd half the game was over at that point. The Falcon's were not as sharp on offense as they normally are and they still put up 31. The only positive thing to come out of this season as your are clearly in the drivers seat for Andrew Luck. There will be the temptation to take $cam Newton as hes going to have the Vince Young effect after he dominated Oregon but it would be in your best interest to draft Luck instead. Nonetheless you still blow.

The Atlanta Braves have had a very nice off season thus far with the signings of Dan Uggla, George Sherrill and trading for Scott Linebrink. With the pieces we have coming back and the power bat we desperately needed in Uggla, I think the Braves have a very good chance next year. Our SP and bullpen should again be solid and the only place I think we still need help is in CF. The idea of adding Jacoby Ellsbury would be incredible. However, I don't know if the RedSox are willing to part with him cheaply. I still wouldn't mind seeing us grabbing Scott Podsednick from the WhiteSox. That would a speed dynamic to our lineup we haven't had in years. With the Phillies signing Cliff Lee the odds we win the NL East are basically gone. However I still think the Braves are suited to win 90-94 games. If we win 90 games we are winning the wild card. Do not fear, Fredi Gonzalez will do just fine replacing the most overrated manager of all time in Bobby Cox.
